Nunavut does not have its own immigration pathway, despite acute labour shortages

By Shilpashree Jagannathan, Local Journalism Initiative Reporter, New Canadian Media Unlike every other jurisdiction in Canada, the northern territory of Nunavut does not have its own immigration pathway to recruit newcomers, despite persistent labour shortages and a skills mismatch between available talent and job vacancies. Foreign nationals who want to live and work in Nunavut must rely instead on federal pathways like Express Entry or a temporary work permit tied to a specific job offer, according to the Government of Nunavut’s own website.
